Marina Abramović and Lady Gaga Collaborate

Gaga and Abramović’s video is part of the Marina Abramović Institute’s Kickstarter campaign. Their goal is to fund a $20 million living museum in Hudson, New York. Since the new video on Wednesday, the institute has raised $70,000 (out of $250,000 raised since July).
